I was playing the Decoy last night and experienced an issue. I threw it and everything was normal. As I went for a split bottom mount the tone of the bearing changed drastically. I took it apart, cleaned, and lubed the bearing. Once it was reassembled I threw it to discover that it now has major vibe issues. Im hoping that i just smoked my first bearing? Any thoughts or recommendations?

A particle probaby got inside and locked up the bearing, just get a new one and you will be fine.
